A Song of degrees of David. 
 1  If it had not been the  LORD who was on our side, now may Israel say; 
 2  If it had not been the  LORD who was on our side, when men rose up against us: 
 3  Then they had swallowed us up quick, when their wrath was kindled against us: 
 4  Then the waters had overwhelmed us, the stream had gone over our soul: 
 5  Then the proud waters had gone over our soul. 
 6  Blessed be the  LORD, who hath not given us as a prey to their teeth. 
 7 Our soul is escaped as a bird out of the snare of the fowlers: the snare is broken, and we are escaped. 
 8 Our help is in the name of the  LORD, who made heaven and earth.
